Channel 4 launches The Big Food Fight season

Channel 4 launches The Big Food Fight - a season of programming which aims to raise awareness and encourage debate about food production, animal welfare and healthy eating.

For the first time ever, Channel 4’s titans of cuisine – Gordon, Hugh and Jamie – join forces in a fortnight-long season that asks the British public to think before they eat.

Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall challenges the supermarkets to rethink their methods in Hugh’s Chicken Run, Jamie Oliver reveals the workings of the food industry in Jamie’s Fowl Dinners and in Gordon Ramsay: Cookalong Live, Gordon Ramsay invites the nation to cook alongside him in a unique countrywide cooking experience.

The season also incorporates two special one-off programmes - Jamie Oliver: Eat to Save Your Life and Junk Food Addicts Go Native, a First Cut: Health Food Junkies programme and two related editions of Channel 4’s flagship current affairs strand, Dispatches, hosted by Jane Moore.
